RE: a ? about alto and bass music

If you do get an alto or a bass and dont have parts for all the pieces, a more reasonable substitute for parts would be the Eb French horn part for the Eb Alto and perhaps the Bb Treble Clef Euphonium part. A lot of times these instruments are doubling these parts anyway. The alto can also play on an alto sax part and the bass can play the tenor sax part. Talk it over with the director to see where the "gaps" are in your band if there isnt a part for the alto or bass clarinet part.

Have fun!
